The Kosovo Law Institute (KLI) on Wednesday published a report titled "Accountability in the Face of Government Scandals", which examines the way the Kosovo Government has managed cases of suspected corruption and abuse of power by public officials.
The report highlights that good anti-corruption governance requires proactive actions to prevent corruption, reporting cases, cooperating with justice institutions, and providing public accountability, while respecting the investigation process.
However, according to the KLI, the current government has demonstrated the opposite approach.
"Instead of promoting transparency and cooperating with justice institutions, it has often protected suspects and questioned the work of investigative bodies. This has led to a lack of public accountability and a violation of the principles of good governance," it says. KLI report.
The report summarizes a series of cases reported in the media that have aroused great public interest, including the sectors of energy, public procurement, state reserves, diplomacy, public administration, culture, agriculture and infrastructure.
Some of the main cases being handled are suspicions of abuses in the energy market and political interference in KEK, misuse of single-source contracts, suspicions of illegal use of state reserves, political hiring in public enterprises, contested allocation of subsidies and funds, and suspicions of conflict of interest in large infrastructure projects.
KLI emphasizes that the report was prepared based on information published by the media, always respecting the principle of presumption of innocence.
